Secondary Distributor Directory

The Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) is keen to see its information widely used for the benefit of the community. To provide you with greater freedom to use ABS material and support informed decision making and innovation, we recently introduced more open licensing arrangements for customised data and subscription products. These licenses are part of a suite of licenses provided by Creative Commons Australia. This is part of our ongoing commitment to open access to public sector information.

Our default licence is the Creative Commons Attribution 2.5 Australia licence which allows you to freely, re-use, build upon and distribute your customised material even commercially. These free Creative Commons licenses have replaced our previous Secondary Distribution licenses. Other licensing arrangements may still apply for a small number of products, but this will be clearly indicated within each product.
